Sprinkler Blowouts For Tuesday, October 27, 2020

I heard on the news today that the low temperature this morning was the lowest on record as far back as 1878 which is when they started keeping records.  This is why I tell people they need to pre-winterize their backflows and pumps.  You never know what Idaho weather is going to bring, and there are not enough blowout technicians in the valley to handle the workload when this happens…….

Unfortunately, we had to charge a non-cancellation fee for a blowout in Fruitland today. Our first of the season.  That was a LONG drive for nothing when we sent out an email and text to the Fruitland customer as a reminder on Saturday with plenty of time to cancel.  Even if someone doesn’t pay attention to their email, a box was checked that they understand the only way to cancel is through the cancellation form, otherwise face a trip charge.

We have closed down all counties for new requests yesterday except for Ada since Canyon county makes up only about 10 percent of all our blowouts.  That being said, we have made the decision to finish Canyon county before we start around on our second pass elsewhere.  That way we can be finished in the area and not worry about new requests to get to on our next pass.  We have closed down Star & Middleton to new requests as well.

Speaking of Star and Middleton, we will make a quick pass to go through a few we couldn’t do yesterday because of either not being able to find valves or gates we couldn’t get through.

Now there is a high probability some of the addresses on the end of each route will likely carry over until tomorrow.  I will post the information with tomorrow’s post.

    Are you planning on returning to 83709?

    As Melinda commented last Friday, it was disappointing to not see my street listed – but now there’s two weeks of other ZIP codes.

    Let me know if I need to cancel and find someone else.

      We make several passes around the valley through the first week of December. What Melinda was saying, (I know her quite well as a customer) was that basically patience is a virtue. She wrote her comment for everyone else, not us. You are more than welcome to cancel, our you can wait until we are back in the area again.

    I received the email saying you were coming today but I am not on the list. Can you please look into this?

      Hi liz, I looked into it and found the issue. You signed up with your house and street number correctly, but put Nampa 83686 as your city and zip. So, since we were working in the Nampa 83686 today you received the email. Our routing software figured it out which is why we weren’t there today and your street wasn’t listed. I have made the correction to your form in our database so that when we are back in Meridian you will be in the proper group.

        I live in Nampa. I live off Lewis Ln and 45. There is the same address in Meridian. I put in the special instructions on your online registration form that my address is correct.

          Sorry, our routing software kicked it out. I will see to it that we get you back in rotation for tomorrow, but if Google can’t find you…….

    I would greatly appreciate it! I live in Table Meadows subdivision. Lewis Ln and Craig, just east of Victory Charter School. I took today off so I could be here, do you typically need the controller? If so I will try and be home.

      Not typically. If the technician gets lost, I will have him get in touch with you
